Interesting that they call out Fastmail as a supported provider, but don't support JMAP. Seems like that would have been an easy stretch goal for Claude, and a good way to stand out amongst the competition.

I assume they're referring to Professional (Graduate) degrees, like JD or MD.

In a 2021 podcast interview[0], Dr. Hipp noted they've sold zero copies of the TH3 (extensive, proprietary) test suite in SQLite's history.
By the time TH3 was added in 2008, SQLite had gained a fair bit of traction across multiple industries. Though I totally agree that the comprehensive coverage is a leading reason why they've been so stable over the last ~20 years.
So indirectly, TH3 is why they (continue to) exist and (are able to) make money, but it isn't a direct line as one might assume.

Gitlab started in 2011. Which, granted, is still after 2007.

A developer wrote a paper in 2020 about how to make Python substantially (5x) faster.
Microsoft then funded a 'Fast CPython' team that included Guido, to realize that goal. They disbanded the team in June.

That is a common misconception.
> Next, we've got more than just two tables. The quote/paraphrase doesn't make it clear, but we've got two tables per thing. That means Accounts have an "account_thing" and an "account_data" table, Subreddits have a "subreddit_thing" and "subreddit_data" table, etc.

"insufficient data for meaningful answer", one might say.
